Reconnecting with Confirmation
by PETE MAIDMENT AND SUSIE MAPLEDORAM WITH STEPHEN LAKE
Many children now take communion before they are confirmed. What does this mean for the importance of confirmation? Does it still have a role to play in the Christian journey?
This new guide explores the importance of confirmation, its origins and theology and its place today. Exploring youth culture and young people’s needs for rites of passage, it will help put confirmation at the heart of youth discipleship.
Written by practitioners with extensive experience of youth culture and sacramental ministry (including our diocesan Youth Officer Susie Mapledoram), it includes practical guidance on creating the best confirmation experience both for young people and the local church.
